Great Map! As Expected..

I purchased this map set for our up and coming trip to Yellowstone and the Tetons. The first thing I want to say is that the map for Yellowstone is NOT the real detailed one like the Teton one is. I was not aware of this at the time of purchase. The maps included are 201 (Yellowstone) and 202 (Grand Teton). National geographic also offers Yellowstone maps for the Southwest region (302), Northwest (303), Northeast (304) and Southeast (305) in a more detailed version. That said the 201 map is still really nice it may not be as easy to read for shorter hiking trails. It is a really big park so it requires having 4 separate maps for more detail. The map is made out of a really nice material or it has a coating on it that makes it waterproof and still nice pliable. If you're planning to write on it I would suggest a sharpie and a highlighter doesn't seam to stick to it. I would also recomend to get the National Geographic guide books to go with it. I got a different brand so the trail numbers don't match up. Once I get back I'll update on how well the worked.

This map pack contains the Grand Teton map and the Yellowstone map. The Grand Teton map has one side with a map of the whole park in somewhat less detail, and on the other side a more detailed map of only part of the park. The Yellowstone map has about half the park on one side and the other ~half on the other side. Map material is of the highest quality I have seen so far. One disadvantage we have encountered is that backcountry camping sites in the Grand Teton map are marked very vaguely/inaccurately. Backcountry camping in the Tetons is allowed in regions highlighted in pink on the map and marked by signs on the trail at the beginning and end of the allowed region. Each region can be several miles long. However, in many cases the vast majority of that region is practically impossible to camp in, and actual campsites are usually signposted. In addition to the pink color of each camping region, each region on the map also includes one or two campsites that are specifically marked by a tent inside the pink region. However, in many cases there is no correlation between the tent mark on the map and the camping sites in reality. Considering that each region is often several miles long, that makes it very hard to plan walking distances and times to camp. It would be best if map editors either removed these tent marks altogether, or, ideally, mark on the map the true locations of actual camping sites in correlation to their location on ground. Otherwise these are high quality maps.

Great buy!

I like the size and detail of these maps. They are resistant to tears, spills, precipitation and more. You can write on them with permanent or dry erase markers for highlighting your next adventure. Unfortunately, I do not feel that these maps offer the amount of detail needed for back country hiking. This map is geared for the visitor that is interested in more of the "advertised" sights. However, they do encourage the traveler to interact more with nature.
